i" HONOR The KING. I"

The King is the Head of the Gov
eminent, and as such the Head of
the Nation. A Constitution ema-
mating from the People and promul-
gated by the King on the 9TH day
of July, 1887, declares the Govern
ment of this Kingdom to be "a
Constitutional Monarchy, under His
Majesty Kalakaua, His Heirs and
Successors.
Proper and becoming respect is
at all times due TO the King as
Head of the Nation. A person
wanting in that respect is either
destitute of breeding or of the in
stincts of a gentleman.
When the unknown person sign
ing himself "Junius" attacked the
King of England in series of pub
lished letters, he criticised the ac-
tions and conduct of His Majesty
in the most cutting and scathing
language, but always respectfully.
Never once that we can remember
from our reading did he forget or
omit the respect due the Head of
the Nation. Junius was gentle
man, and the productions of his pen
are specimens of classical English
and plain, pointed, incisive, digni-
fed criticism of men in high places.
Junius, an educated English gen.
tleman, invariably evinced deep
respect for a national Head whose
course was subversive of the rights
and liberties of the subject, and
whose doings he undertook to dis
sect, analyze, and expose in Ian
guage extremely severe; but here
in this Kingdom of Hawaii, where
the Head of the Nation is placed
by the Constitution in the position
of reigning Sovereign, with res
ponsible Ministers, and who has
given unmistakable proof of his
willingness to be guided by their
counsel, becoming respect is some
times wanting in speeches made in
the House. This scents of the
backwoods academician and not of
the cultured gentleman.

UNIDENTIFIED SHUFFLING.

EDITOR BULLETIN:-The reply of
the Minister of Foreign Affairs to
Rep. Kamauoha's question regard
ing the settlement made with two
Hawaiians, seamen discharged from
the Kaimiloa, is a miserable admis-
sion of incompetence or injustice.
Liwai and Moses stood on an
even footing with other seamen on
the vessel, The white men on the
vessel were Hawaiian to all intents
and purposes, and could not demand
a more liberal settlement than native
Hawaiians could. What right had
the Hawaiian Government to apply
the rules prevailing u the United
States and British nayies to the
white men on board the Kaimiloa,
giving them three months advance
pay, and deny the application of the
same rules 10 native seamen?

II and were solemnly sworn to sup
port it. Reflective men can feel no
satisfaction nor cry "peace, peace
under these circumstances, knowing
full well that if the Constitution can
be violated in one article it may be
violated in all. No, no, this kind of
thing is not calculated to ensure
peace, and it is not merely ga small
circle of aspirants to office" who
think so.

AT SEA-.

EDITOR BULLETIN 1T seems to
me and many others that there is
something ''rotten in Denmark"
with our whole reform. To prove
this, one need not go far. The
grumbling and dissatisfaction seem
to increase daily, perhaps hourly,
and what is more significant still is
the fact that this fault finding is not
alone confined to a class of men,
whose intelligence, social standing
or power is below notice, but seems
to have taken root actually among
the very best of this community.
Surely there must be some reason
for this; certainly some explanation
could be offered. Is it perchance
that the very spirit and intent of our
much expected new Constitution
does not pervade and unite, invigor-
ate or vivify every part of our little
Kingdom? Striking discord where
unity was expected, blighting hopes
where certainties were looked for,
lowering selfrespect when all Ha-
waii had risen as one man to main
tain the honor of their nations flag?
If this new inaugurated order of
affairs has not brought all and every
one of the above mentioned evils
about, still who would dare truth
fully to aver that this has not been
the case in great many instances?
/ don't think that any of those pre-
sent will forget the disgust and dis
appointment when the new Magma
Charta of little Hawaii saw its
first light of day among the people
who asked as with one voice, twas
this what we were ready to fight
for?" Was this the best the wis
dom of the Kingdom would give US?
But our feelings at that time were
quickly quoted. We had leaders
and we had work to do. We were
told that certain objections would
be remedied "as soon as possible"
and trusting to our champions we
went ahead, finishing the work of
our Leaders, and finished ourselves,
our unity with it, finding ourselves
this very day without leaders, with
out one single man who would dare
to say "come, follow me, these are
my sentiments! this is my policy!"
If l am wrong, please correct, and
l will gladly be instructed; but if
right, then l land many others say,
give us policy to follow, give us
leader either in the Cabinet or
Legislature.
The question than with you gen
tIemen of the Cabinet and Legisla-
ture is, not whether you have right
to forsake the people and render
them miserable; but whether it is
not your interest to unite them and
make them happy.
Don't let this Reform party be
insulted by giving outsiders chance
to say, it was only madness of
many for the gain of few"-and
such few!
1t is not what you are told by the
law you may do, but what You are
told by gratitude, reason justice and !

NEGLECT OR BAD MEMORY


EDITOR BULLETIN: - The extra
session being almost at q close is it
not right to ask of the members of
the House il they still bear in mind
some words of their speeches made
previous to election day? Or are
we going to be, If not in all at least
in part, deceived as were the sup
porters and voters of the old party p?
We, the supporters of the present
Government, fought during the last
election or at least many of us did,
with the only belief that every mem
Der who was TO be elected underiour
banner (Reform) would stand and
fight on the floor of the Parliament
for the good of the community at
large, and not only for clique or
portion of it, namely the planters.
For instance, is not the Portuguese
element in this country, who will re-
member the promises made to them,
justified in saying one and all that
they have shamefully been deceived.
According to the declarations of
the Reform party our banner was to
shine with the words equality and
liberty for ALL" the poor being
protected against those who wished
to be our oppressors.
One of the most solemn promises,
i. e., Ito the Portuguese) the Asia
tic immigration stopped, and, more
still, the passports granted by the
"old fraud" would be, if not can
celled, severely investigated and the
parties identified. But where are
all those promises? Where is their
fulfilment? Alas! After the easy
chair is gotten it matters not how.
BY this time it must appear clear
to all who are impartial, that it is
not intended by the ruling clique 10
treat the Portuguese with true re-
gard to equality of race or nation
atty. This clique is prejudiced
against the Portuguese, aud the
common excuse that they are too
costly and so on is only hand full
of dust thrown on their eyes, and
an effort to prejudice people against
them. / say the intentions of that
clique is to screw them down and
prevent them to get on level with
the other white people, because if
they did, it is feared that other in
terests would be spoiled.
Instead of this narrow policy,
clearly surprising from the Reform
party, why does not this country or
Government adopt the system so
successfully carried on by our great
neighbors, the United States of
America, where not only Portuguese
but every nationality is awarded the
same rights and privileges. The
only way that nation can prosper
is to allow every man to obtain for
tune through his industry, but here
where part of our community is
trying to hold the black snake and
the infamous contract system over
the laborer, we never will prosper;
few of the said clique, the planters,
may thrive, but the laborers will re-
main slaves. And the dream of these
islands being in the hands of the
people in general and not of the
plantnrc ac wa wnrn told IN
the 30th day of June last, that
dream is well nigh vanished by the
neglect of fulfilment of the promises
made specially to us.

unfaithfulness to tho Constitution,
Every member swore to faithfully
support the Constitution of the Ha-
waiian Kingdom, and conscientiously
and impartially discharge his [lny]
duties as a member of the Legis-
lature." The solemn obligation Of
an oath should have some power in
quickening the consciences of men,
bers of the Legislature. In this
case, the course of duty is as clear
as day. Let the country have a

WEDNESDAY. DEC. Z, 1887.
MUTUALLY DEPENDENT.

The planter cannot succeed with
out the mechanic and the laborer,
nor can the mechanic and thelaborer
subsist without the planter. They
are mutually dependent on each
other, and it is the interest of each
TO serve the interest of the other,
for thereby self-interest is promoted.
Nine-tenths of everything in this
country lean upon the back of the
planter, and without the "bone-and-
sinue" class to support him, he will
have no back to lean upon. 1t is
absurd for either to profess indie
pendence of the other. The planter
knows this, but the other is some
times too wooden-headed to perceive
it.
"What dependence upon the
planter has the laborer or the me-
chanic who earns his bread in Homo
lulu?" is question just now pro-
pounded to us. We answer by
another question or two: What
employment would there be in Homo
lulu for mechanics, labOrers, mer-
chants, shop-keepers, lawyers, doc
tors, editors, or anybody else, were
the planter dead and buried!
Whence comes the means to maintain
trrde and manufactures, to erect
buildings, to effect improvements,
and in brief, to keep alive the capital
city, if not from the planter?
We have frequently heard it said
within the last day or two past, that
the planter has too much of his own
way, that too much consideration is
shown him in legislation and admin
istration, that he has become AFRO
giant and should have his wings clip
ped, and much more in the same
strain. This may be all true. We
do not know, however, and do not
believe, that it is.
1t is certainly contrary to the
genius of our Constitution to allow
any man or class of men a superio-
rity to others before the law, or to
confer upon any the power of oppres-
sing their fellow men of any color
or country whatever; and we cor
daily endorse the Constitution. But
while denying to the planter any
special prerogatives or privileges,
we would be very careful not to
withhold any which are his natural
heritage or constitutional legacy.
Those who talk of "clipping his
wing" are, unconsciously no doubt,
seeking to skill the hen which lays
the golden egg" Considering the
paramount Importance to this country
of the planting interest, no sensible
man could ever wish to see it Grip
pied with an oppressive embargo.
Enlightened policy and wise states
manship are opposed to the imposi-
ton of burdensome restrictions and
harrassing impediments to our one
great industry. So far as can be,
consistent with the general good, it
should be encouraged and fostered
by liberal legislation.

Labor and the Golden Rule.

A writer in The Open Court, a schol-
arly publication. relates an experience
of his early life which carries On in
structive lesson. Although now pos
sessed of competency. in his early
years he trundled a wheelbarrow in
the construction of railroads. and deem
ed himself a skilled workman then, as
he was,-for the men were few who
could accurately and jauntily roll and
dump their barrows. One day an aged
fellow-worker said to him: .'Yez could
wheel on a horses rlb." and the trib-
ute was diploma Soon afterward
there came along a greenhorn. stall
wart but awkward. He made a mess
of the job, but only one man volunteer
ed to instruct him in the knack of walk
ing the plank. For his kindness in
doing SO Jenny Hill was upbraided BY
his confreres, who looked on the new
arrival as plug" and 'scab. !"
Their taunts had little effect on Jenny,
but one day he took aside the writer of
the narrative which we condensc and
showed him little watch-charm, on
which were engraved two torches, the
one lighting the other. with this motto
underneath: my light is none the
less for lighting my neighbor." What
lesson that was in political economy
and the humanities! 1t is gratifying to
be inform g that this phil.sophic and
kindly b. r .ow- trundler afterward be-

in town was cleared for his accom-
